These cljangea huivo .bcvn in upmatHon more or legs, yt'ariby yettr to the present day*), and (hoy haoo iJot always been hc- (JiimplisKt^ without Accrinmny strife and cost.

Moticf ilie men of business, of tbo tir'st clivss in all the de parlnienta oFcunimi^ricalanduorernniental life, men i>f ability and sterlin/ character abound It is noticeable that ditx-us- sioiis are had upon the present excessive ciaiiiming systetn of subjects of no im- jportance for a practical life. At all eTCDte few townships are better eijuipped with Bood schoolboi'.ses, or supplietl with better teachers according to present re- gime, than Artenicsia. The dwellings of the inhabitants are no le!<H marked in contrast. In thuse days log houses were the rule ; at lonij dis- tances you peradventure would come acmss a frame house, but it WHS ihe ex ception. The loj- houses many of them were »ery cpsy, and even the sliaiities, with their f roughed trees for shingles, with open chimnleg and hu:<e lo.g, pro- tected nK«ny early settlers from tho wmter's blast As those structures have yielded to cliniatio influences they have been supplanted by frame and -brick dwellings, b<ilh conimodii-us and graceful in uppearunco. One might expect improvements in agricultural implements and CMUifortable vehicles for pleasitre. Tl.i:ty-five years ngii you would travel » long dis'aneo i>i find a family denjocrat, a cov.-red buggy, or .\ epicy cutter.'., Tben were the days for ox ti'ams A,,ppiin of lioi.seswa.s the exception; improyjsed sUds, with a very limited Huuply„<)f.,'>!'''g"ns. I haie beard at the Chicago .piinfpnriial, thero Wiis shown a , very pjimitivo , vehi.de ; the whe.el8 were mude .of linjs cut acros'i ; it attracted no 8mi\l{ noiico. Thirty-five years a^o the writer saw-a .similiar siruct- ure, owned by father Marshall, jxirent of â- lohnson Cullen, )yjx)ut its laut use wa.s ti lake lii.s son's tj;imk to the lailroad drawii by ivyoke oj[ oxen; necessity proved to be the mother (.1^ in\ention and it is pr. sinned it was ^ so in this esse. Then mowers and reajwrs were unknown, every store had a stock of cradles iind scythes, and these wore sold to harvest the hay and (^raiii. What sphere foi reflection is greater than the contrast in pleasurable vehicles and fanning implements. Then harvesting was prolonged for w.int of hands. Now machinery shortens the time of haivest and dispenses with labor so necesaary in times past ^Iii speak ina of Fle.sherton in particular. Heri' exists a contrast. It was alway^< Ciinsidered to be the firot and chief villayp of I be township, but the first post- office was at Iiiistogtf I think. Notwitli- stsuiling I he fact that Eutfenia and Price- villo were laid out by (Joverniiient sur- veyor's, for large towns or even c tics. Then Flesherton was comprised of 8 dwell- ings all told. VV. K. Fle.sher was the postniaHter. He owned the saw mill and soon afterwards a grist mill. Tho village hi.s irowii 1 1 its present size, with almost every residence at present occupied. It has been and is handicH{>ped by nu'side villages, Geyh>n and Eugenia; hut not- withatandinK it retains a considerable proporlioii of the trade of the township, many a sensible iiihab tant prefcrriuit to nupport his own village, for as the village increases in her population, so is there an increased market for farmer's pro- ducts. It may be safely challenuetl that an average, say of three years' trade, Flesherton shows as good, if not better, results tc the advaiitaua of the farmer, ihan any other village surrounding her. The township hall Iwing situated here, as well as the county agricultural buildings, with a nice stream of water, the Boyiie, runnini; through, very natuntlly (tivesher a prestige fur picturesquuness and large assemblies. The Boynt, I understand, is to be utilized to its fullost power for many purposes, and will no doubt be a factor to make it necessary for more lalnir. The village is now a police \illago and conne(|Ufliily has tho privilege of spending within thoir bounds the amount of tax on her property, she at ihMaame time having to (my proport ionately her share of the townhhip expenses, as by mutual arraiiga nient made. At present it is pleaaim; to note that no antagoniani exists between her and the township. An old maxim says, "It ia better to be out of the world tlitin out of the fashion." 8u that in fu- ture the street walker at iiiuht, the rowdy, tho thief, as well as church goer in i)uiei niion, are to lie enveloped in elao tic I'g'it. Thin dan {ir will be re- niovid from broken sidevalks, so often neglected, and niahlly promenades will multiply uader these improved ciroum- stances, but (he rxpe<tations are too nunipio IS to recoid, W.8.C.
